Jaime Saavedra is one of the world's most influential education reformers. Former Minister of Education in Peru and now Director of Human Development for Latin America and the Caribbean at the World Bank, he has led and advised some of the region's most ambitious efforts to improve learning outcomes at scale. In this episode, he unpacks what it really takes to deliver effective education reform—not just design it. Drawing on decades of experience, Saavedra outlines four essential conditions for change: sound technical design, sustainable financing, strong implementation capacity, and political will. He explains why many systems fail despite good intentions, and why reforms succeed when countries invest in teachers, strengthen bureaucracies, and centre policy around student learning. From the turnaround in Peru after disastrous PISA results, to lessons from Sobral and the province of Mendoza, this conversation offers a masterclass in how to transform systems—not just schools.

David Seymour is calling for culling of the government. He's floated a policy that would reduce the number of ministers and government departments, calling into question the necessity of some. Racing, Hunting and Fishing, Hospitality, Space, and Child Poverty Reduction were a few he named. Jan Tinetti is the former Minister for Women and Child Poverty Reduction, and she told Heather du Plessis-Allan the reason these ministries exist is to take a specialised look at issues. She says that while they are often covered under other portfolios, they would simplify the issues far too much, and we wouldn't get anywhere in solving them.

Last night on 1News I heard the single most logical and sane thing said in the entire bulletin in a long time. It was said by Simon Upton, the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment. A very smart man. A Rhodes Scholar. A Former Minister for the Environment for National. Simon Upton said we should in, an ordinary way, take forestry out of the Emissions Trading Scheme. And I thought, why has it taken so long for someone to say it? We should, in an orderly way, take forestry out of the Emissions Trading Scheme. Forestry for climate change has been a Ponzi scheme. The 1News reporter called it a golden ticket. It's swamped productive land for easy gain. It's caused rampant wilding growth through our wild lands. In essence, it's a very big weed unless you're farming it for wood and paper and even then, that market is turning sour - ask Tokoroa and Kawerau. But has it done anything to reduce emissions? We've had long enough for proof. It has not. It's provided excuses for well-meaning pop bands to travel the world in private jets, planting useless forests in their wake and claiming moral superiority. But the 1News bit then went and missed the point. The headline was that we should plant natives instead of pine. Which he did say, but only if we keep with the nutso forest planting scheme. What Simon proposed was completely removing the ability of carbon polluters to rely on planting trees to meet their climate obligations. He said what New Zealand currently had been mostly a "tree planting scheme" that did little to cut planet-heating gases. And then the zinger quote: "The world actually needs real reductions in gross emissions, not an accounting triumph". If you want to cut your emissions, then cut your emissions. But don't plant a tree.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
